    Ceviche
    Penny R.

    Flavorful food and personality filled employees!!! Every time driving by the place looks packed. Easy to see why. Locals know quality food. We had the ceviche, minus Mayo and it was filling and hit the spot. The choose your own plate comes loaded with a full plate of rice and beans. The chicken I. The tacos and enchiladas have flavor. The chili verde sauce has a kick to it! Salsa is in house made and you can ask for the spicier one. Margaritas are individually made so they are not watered down.

    Chicken Tacos!
    Angie D.

    Came in real quick after a long drive exhausted and hungry. Chicken tacos always solves the hunger issue! These were delish. They come with rice and beans. Of course I only ate the tacos. They close at 9:30pm pretty early if you ask me. They serve all drinks from the machine, no can sodas, no can or bottle anything. No homemade juices or anything in that sort. The place is pretty big- the tacos were bigger than I expected, was only able to eat two. Deff. Will be back when Im starving and craving Texas style Tacos!

    5 de Mayo special is the bees knees. Service could use a little improvement but that could be because I'm a gringo. Ambiance seems like it's not quite finished but I don't go there for any of those things I go for the food

    Flan: $3.99 before tax
    Hyun Sik A.

    Taco Tuesday experience Taste of food: Free chips and salsa as appetizer. Chips were warm and crunchy, and salsa tasted decent. Taco Tuesday $1 tacos only apply to chicken and beef tacos. In general, all the tacos were generously sized, and they did not skimp on the meat. The chicken tacos tasted way better than the beef. The chicken is some sort of pulled chicken that's soft and juicy. The beef is ground beef like you'd find at Taco Bell. Service: The restaurant was packed, and our waitress was busy servicing multiple large tables at the same time. She was friendly and did a good job of managing each table. Atmosphere: Overall the restaurant looks like any other Mexican restaurant in Georgia. When you enter, there is a bar area on the right, and general seating on the left. Drinks: My friends got the margarita and said they were wayyyy too sweet and syrupy. My water tasted fine. Dessert: The flan was also wayyyy too sweet...the sauce + Hershey's chocolate syrup + whip cream was overkill. It could've been fine with just a little sauce. Overall: I give 4/5 stars only because the tacos were $1, and they give free chips and salsa. It's just about average for Mexican restaurants in Georgia. I wouldn't go on a normal night without this deal.

    Tacos el Pastor
    Miyu W.

    Tacos el Pastor: probably their best dish. Generous portion and the meat was on point. Rice and Beans: very average, I didn't expect much anyway. Texas style Fajitas: good enough Lime Margarita: tasted like water with a sprinkle of flavor, I don't know what I expected. Our waitress was super nice, the overall ambience was welcoming and appealing.

    Guacamole

    Horrible, the guacamole too expensive and not flavor on, not even close to a Mexican flavor. Michelada, too spicy. I couldn't drink it. Dirty restaurant, The bathrooms smell bad. No paper toilet. Tables with dust and trash on the side. Terrible experience in middle of COVID-19 . Service the worst. No contact no patience. Nothing to come back.

    Dinner for 4! So much food, and the price for adults about 80.00$. Not too bad.

Tipsy McSway's is open until 10 PM and the kitchen stops taking orders at 9 PM. After looking over the menu, I decided to try the Brunswick stack sandwich. I had hoped to try the tomato bisque soup as my side, but unfortunately, they only serve chili, not soup, on Mondays. So instead, I ordered the fried potato salad as my side, and it was surprisingly delicious. It comes with small diced potatoes in a warm savory mustard sauce. When I originally asked the bartender what he recommended, he mentioned the Brunswick stack sandwich as well as the smash burgers. While the sandwich was good, I would probably try one of the burgers next time. Nevertheless, I would definitely get the fried potato salad again. The next time I'm in the area, I would definitely consider returning to Tipsy McSway's and I would recommend it to others as well. Cheers
